Couldn’t ask for more!!

All I can say is WOW!! Oglebay was the best choice my husband and I could have ever made for our wedding ceremony and reception. We had our ceremony on the West Spa patio and it was absolutely beautiful. Followed by our reception in the Glessner auditorium which was everything I could have dreamed of. All of our guests can not believe how pretty the entire Oglebay set up was! So many friends and family keep telling us it was the most put together wedding they have ever been to. But… A very special shout out to our wedding coordinator Lauren Mitchell! She was AMAZING! When we needed something she was right there with us every step of the way. She went above and beyond to make sure our day was exactly what we wanted and more. She was very responsive towards all emails, phone calls, meetings etc. We can not thank her enough!!

Our first and only choice.

I had never been before, and we chose Oglebay after our first tour of Glessner Auditorium in Wilson Lodge. We are a couple from pittsburgh that wanted a “destination” feel without costing our guests an arm and a leg. The resort has so many wonderful amenities and i can’t wait to see what fun our guest get into. Our coordinator, Lauren, has been an absolute gem to work with. She had made things clear and understandable. We are so excited for our wedding this June, and the added benefit of booking a large picnic shelter for a welcome party the night before. Oglebay is a one stop shop and i can’t imagine doing this planning process any other way.

Amazing Wedding location!

We had our wedding at Oglebay in December 2021. It was so magical! I would recommend it over and over again, especially if you want to be married around the holidays. The entire lodge was decorated beautifully (it always is), but something about winter really makes it spectacular. The staff were incredible and made us feel so important. We also used several of Oglebay's preferred vendors (shout out Hannah Barlow and Finest Events) who were awesome to work with as well. I honestly can't say enough good things about the experience.
